Km 286 In
September 2005 fuel was $1.75 per liter (gas & diesel)
here, but this was in the aftermath of Hurricane
Katrina, when gas prices went a bit nuts.
If you're heading east and don't want to stop at Mirage
Outfitter for fuel, it is 592 km to the end of the Road
at km 582 and back (without 4-wheel drive), or 760 km to
the end at km 666 and back (4-wheel drive required).
If you're heading west this is the last fuel available
on this road, until you reach the
James Bay Road and then drive either north or south.
If you're heading west and then north to Radisson, the
next fuel is 362 km away. If you're heading west and
then south the next fuel is 449 km away at km 381 of the
James Bay Road. |
